For our 2nd or 3rd cruise I decided to make my DH some "Caribbean" shirts to wear. I've made him 6 or 7 so far. But since we have now been on 23 cruises (in 10 yrs) some of the first shirts are starting to wear out, especially seeing he insists on wearing them here in central IN. during the summer. So seeing we are going on another cruise, I decided to make him 2 more shirts yesterday. He really likes the fish shirt. I match the fabric where the opening is in front and the chest pocket matches the fabric before it is cut. DH thinks that is so cool. It just drives me nuts if it doesn't. The fish shirt still needs the buttons added. The plaid shirt has been completed since I took the picture. Sorry the 2nd pic is tilted.
